On our family’s western travels this summer, we regularly crossed or traveled historic Route 66, as when we visited the beautiful — and beautifully restored — La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Arizona (see photo at the top). So it was great to learn that the Vintage Roadside folks were traveling to the National Preservation Conference in Tulsa by road trip along historic Route 66 – and blogging about it along the way.
Vintage Roadside celebrates the “incredible history and advertising graphics of mom and pop businesses from the 1930s through the early 1960s.” The folks at Vintage Roadside partner with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the sponsors of the National Preservation Conference in Tulsa. You can also read about their trip on the PreservationNation.org website of the National Trust.
So take a look at their blog, order one of their great t-shirts with a roadside sign from America’s past, and get your kicks on Route 66.

PastTimeSigns.com specializes in manufacturing a variety of vintage reproduction heavy duty metal products such as clocks, signs, oil cans, and thermometers.
Our primary goal is to produce custom products for customers to retail or use in promotions. We also produce a range of stock products and graphics for wholesale or retail.
We design and make our signs in the United States using 24 gauge American steel and a process known as sublimation, where the image is baked into a powder coating for a durable and long lasting finish. We then perform a vintaging process by hand to give this sign an aged look and feel. The edges of this sign are rounded for extra rigidity and the corners are drilled and riveted for easy hanging.
